    yeah give it a complete rebuild when u may have 1 or 2 bung spark plugs, Do a bit of searching on this forum on checking clearences, balancing carbies and basic maintenance to filters and oil. Get ur bike compression tested first and if it is shot... then u hsould consider a rebuild

    Have a read of these first - they will help immensely.

    Carb cleaning and balancing

    If it is not mentioned, also check that the float valves work properly by doing a bench test with fuel supplied via long hose from the running fuel pump as you won't get the supply pressure equall to pump pressure without a tank 3 metres higher than the carbs.

    Valve adjustments

    Check plugs and do compression test as Seifer says.
    and see if you can borrow an identical ignition controller module as well.

    These things all need to be good for the bike to run properly.

    do you guys think that maybe my bike might need a feul pump coz it dont have one and where the throttle hooks up to the carbs it isnt touching the idle screw i can get new carbs for it for a couple of hundred bucks the valve clearances seem fine and shims are good will the feul pump help to get more ks out of a tank and a dam good tune or does any one have a good set of 3ln 1 carbs for sale

    I'd start with the fuel pump and a carb tune.

    The fuel pump will allow your bike to use the FULL tank of petrol instead of leaving a couple of litres in the bottom of the tank. That said, 80km out of a full tank is really really bad even for an out of tune FZR! Definitely make sure all the valves are within spec, that it has a clean air filter, then it's time to tear down those carb's and find out what's going on in there.

    As a matter of course a compression test might also help; if not prove that it's definitely the carbs that are your problem.
